WOMAN: Okay. Who should go first?
- Okay. - You or me?
- You, you, you, you. - You? Me?
- Okay.
Let's begin.
Oh, I'm seeing a romance.
- This is going to be so fun.
- Ah. From your past.
- Oh. - Okay.
- I'm seeing the initials JM monogrammed on his pillowcases
and his denim beanbag chair.
- Are you kidding me?
You slept with Jason? Our wedding is in two weeks.
- What? No, this lady's crazy.
Danielle, wait, wait.
He didn't even take his belt off.
It was all zipper stuff.
[screams]
Okay. How did you know that?
- I'm a psychic. I see things.
But the good news is you're no longer going
to a destination wedding over Thanksgiving.
- Hmm.
♪ Woo ♪
♪ Love, where does it go? ♪
♪ And do you wake up ♪
♪ Without any control? ♪
- Well.
There you are.
- Uh, do I... do I know you?
- No, it's just my line.
I say "there you are," and then I never stop pretending to know the person.
So how's your mom?
I haven't seen her at mahjong lately.
- [snaps fingers] Nice.
Uh, yeah, look, I'd love to chat,
but I'm just kind of petting this dog right now.
- I totally got it.
- It's not the best time. - I got you.
- Yeah.
- My friend just found out our other friend slept
with her fiancé, so, you know,
I figured I'd mingle,
meet some new people.
- Oh, well, what about that guy trying to kick his way
out of a wedgie?
He seems like your type.
- Oh, he's very cool.
I actually thought the party psychic was pretty cool, too.
- Oh, let me just save you some time.
I'm not a relationship person. - Right.
- Yeah, I just don't do it.
Yeah. - Yeah.
- Too hard when you can see how someone dies.
Or how long their eyebrow hair gets before that happens...
True story.
Enjoy the party.
- So, wait, let me get this right.
You know how I'm going to die, and you're not going to tell me.
That's basically murder.
You're a murderer.
♪
So...
kind of big news.
I met the wedgie guy and his name is, get this,
Jason Jennifer Leigh.
How wild is that, huh?
- Thank you for that.
Um, but I'm supposed to be working right now.
- Okay. Yeah. - Yeah.
- You know what you need?
- Random guys not to ask me that. - Nope.
Tequila shots? - No, thanks.
I am not looking to go through the Wendy's drive-thru on foot tonight.
Also, that chair is only for people
who've signed up for a reading.
- Really? - Yeah. So--
- I missed my chance.
Unless I can grab that pen from you.
May I?
- Okay.
- Benjamin
Julio Morales.
- Okay, you don't actually have to sign up.
Are you doing the reading or-- - No.
- Just put your hands on the table. - Yeah. Got it.
- Okay.
- Wow.
You're, like, really good at holding hands.
- Don't flatter yourself, okay.
The closer I am to your energy, the clearer my vision.
It helps the reading.
- Do your hands always sweat like this or is it just me?
- Please stop talking. - Got it.
You know, I always thought I was a little psychic.
- Hmm.
- I was sure by now I was going to fall in love
and have a kid with a wife
who already hates the way that I eat bananas.
I eat it with a fork and knife.
- So I'm going to start with or without you.
- Yeah. - Okay.
Let's begin.
♪
Oh, this is shocking.
But you will fall in love.
[chuckles]
It's going to be unlike anything you've ever experienced.

MAN: Mm. Mm.
You sure it was you in the vision?
- Angel, it was definitely me.
I'm not supposed to see my own future.
That's never happened before.
- Well, it's rare, but there's always a chance
of giving a reading to somebody
whose life you're meant to be in one day.
- Uh, uh, uh, uh--
- This is a happy thing, isn't it? Why are you fighting that?
- Angel, you have been my psychic since I was in seventh grade.
- Bitch, don't age me like that.
- Okay, so you know why.
Relationships have been impossible for me.
I closed myself off.
I didn't plan on opening myself up again.
So this vision of me as a wife and a mother,
it doesn't make sense.
- Maggie, the future's not meant to make sense.
It's just meant to happen.
You need to stop trying to outsmart your life.
Learn to live in the moment, like I do.
- You know, that's basically a pipe bomb
for your intestines, right?
- Yes, Maggie, but not in the moment.
- Mm-mm. - Give this boy a chance.
- I don't even have his number. So--
- You know as well as I do that the future always shows up
whether you want it to or not.
Oh.
Speaking of, the future is coming.
Oh, a little future may already be here.
- Yeah.
- Okay. Don't get mad, Maggie.
I just want to ask a question.
- No, Mom,
L-O-L does not mean lots of love.
And you should stop sending that to friends
whose spouses have died.
- Mm-hmm.
- What I was going to ask is
are you dating anyone? Also, what is an acai berry?
Do they work? And can you show me how to buy one on my iPad?
- You want to order a single berry off the internet?
- See? I knew she'd be mad.
- No, I'm not mad. I just don't like being probed.
- Well, it's not fair that you get to look
into everyone else's life.
I can't look into my only child's.
- Well, Dad can't look into my life, and he doesn't care.
- Unless you're dead or out of money,
I don't want to know.
- Pow. MARIA: That's fun.
You guys have a secret family handshake.
- Don't be upset. Dating is just a losing game for me.
- So you're just going to be alone forever?
Like our weird tenant who welcomes bees into the duplex?
He sleeps with bees, Maggie.
- Oh my god, I know. And they're not even honeybees.
I have no idea what he gets out of that relationship.
- Bees? No, no, no, no, no.
Those are pets.
We don't allow pets in our lease agreements. Uh-uh.
- Mom, look, I'm fine.
I'm fine being alone.
And acai berries are a total scam.
- Oh, I knew it.
Well, they're not getting a dollar out of me.
I don't care what she said, I'm buying these.
- Great, honey. Well, let's get them and go
because I think our favorite bagger is about to go off duty.
- [gasps] Carla!
- That's not her name. - Oh.
- Yeah.
- Can't fool this lady. - Not gonna.
- Can you just try to put yourself out there, honey?
- Sure. - Okay.
Who wants charcoal ice cream?
The man at the Sundial store makes it himself.
- JACK AND MAGGIE: No.
- Maggie? What are you doing here?
Is this an intervention?
- What? No. Why?
- You never come to my yoga class.
Also, I drink while I teach sometimes.
But, you know, like in a fun way.
- Ohh. Yeah.
Thanks. - Mm-hmm.
- I'm just trying to overthink less
and live in the moment more.
Thought yoga might help.
- Since when are you open to trying new things?
- Since I saw myself in a vision.
I was married, with a kid.
- No way! - Yeah.
- But you have to, like, talk to people to get married.
- Also, you might like having a kid. They get you out of going to parties.
- Not kids' parties. And those are the worst kind.
- That's true. - So how does this work?
It's like Twister, right? Except religious.
- Okay, you're embarrassing me.
Use a mat, not a towel.
And take off your shoes, please. - Oh.
- Yeah, actually, just give those to me.
They're awful. I'm going to burn them.
- Here you go.
- Oh, hi.
Welcome. Love your energy.
You can put your mat just closer to mine.
I'm Louise, by the way.
[cell phone chiming]
Oh! Remember that DUI attorney I told you about?
- Glenn with two N's? - Yes.
Like the actress.
It's not weird, okay. - It's weird.
- He just texted me asking to meet him at Bar Stanley tonight.
- Hey, Glenn! - I know.
I think this is the night I open his fridge
and see what kind of meat he's got in there.
I bet it's kosher.
[sobbing] [toilet flushes]
[blows nose]
Oh no. What is that look?
- Lou, we have a deal.
I can't tell you who your soulmate is,
and you can't date my hot uncle.
- And I get nothing from that deal.
- You get to not spend the weekend at police auctions
trying to get his jet ski back.
- Can you at least come to the bar with me tonight
and just tell me if Glenn is a serial killer
or worse, bad in bed?
- His name is Glenn with two N's.
That's proof he doesn't know when to finish.
Fine. Okay. Okay, I'll come.
- Yay!
I'm going to try out my new mascara.
[sobbing] [toilet flushes]
When Glenn said that he wanted to spend more time exploring Orlando,
I didn't know that he was talking about his boyfriend.
- Yeah.
[blowing nose]
- I just want to go home.
- Oh. Why don't we go to my house and look up guys from high school
to see if they ended up marrying women that look like their moms?
I have a good feeling about Oscar Saltarelli.
- Do you have any soft cheeses?
- I have got a 2017 Boursin spreadable--
- Speak English and be serious, okay.
I can't take any more lies tonight, Maggie.
- Excuse me, Lou.
What is the first rule of our friendship?
BOTH: We don't lie about cheese.
- I love it when you do that.
- Do what?
- Know how to make my life better.
How does my makeup look?
- You're beautiful.
Honestly, you should cry more. - You're the best.
- Sorry. - Oh. Sorry.
- Oh.
- Hi. - Hi.
- There you are. But, like, for real this time.
- Yes, here we are.
That's not the most original line I've heard,
but I'll go with it.
- No, I-I actually do know this guy.
- Um, do you guys want a drink?
My sister's got a table for my birthday.
- Could you give us a second? - Yeah.
And thank you for the birthday wishes. That's very sweet.
LOUISE: That was funny.
- That was the guy that I saw myself marrying.
- Oh.
- We should go. I'm not ready for this.
- Look, you said you wanted to live more in the moment, right?
- Mm. - Well, this is the moment.
- Okay. Okay.
Okay. We're going to stay on one condition.
- Yes.
- Tequila shots.
- Hey! - Happy birthday.
- Cheers. - Cheers.
- Happy birthday, buddy.
BEN: Oh, thank you.
- I'm not going to ruin the surprise,
but this one is Amy's latest cookbook.
Yeah.
Uh, pro tip. You can just add shrooms to any of those dishes.
- Please don't do that to any of my recipes.
DAVE: Oh, Amy's right. Amy's right.
You can just freestyle the shrooms.
Thanks, babe.
- Oh my god, your sister's Eggless Amy?
- She's vegan non-infertile so don't bring it up.
It's a sore subject so--
- This is what I want in a relationship.
- You should totally come to Burning Man with us next year.
- Yes. - Hey, are you a licensed plumber?
- Uh, I could be.
- I like your family.
They're such a perfect match,
like peanut butter and very high jelly.
- Yeah. Somehow they make it work.
- Guess you can't fight fate, huh?
- Guess not.
So I'm going to blow this candle out
and make a wish that I spend more time with you.
Tonight. [blows]
That wasn't slick at all.
So is my wish going to come true?
- That depends.
Do you know how to use chopsticks?
Your technique is off.
- Is it? - Hmm.
- How?
[laughs]
Alright, so be honest.
Did you know we were going to do that when we first met?
- I, uh, had a hunch.
- Did you know I was going to get a cramp halfway there?
- No, because I didn't know that I was hooking up
with someone in my mom's mahjong club.
- Hmm.
- So what's the deal? I mean.
You can actually see the future.
- Yes, I can actually see the future.
- I just thought a psychic would have the perfect life.
- Far from it.
I don't get to choose who wins the lottery.
I just know that it's not me.
- Oh.
- Actually, there's only one real way to see the future.
- What? What?
- Fortune cookies. - Ah, fortune cookies.
- You fell for that. - That was, that was nice.
Well done. - Hard.
- Okay. One, two.
[crunching]
- "Good things come in threes." - Mm.
- And no breaks this time.
- [laughs] Okay.
[both laughing]
- Good morning.
- Hey. Good morning. - [yawns] Hi.
- So how late were we up?
- Ooh, well, pretty late.
We went from our first kiss to our first fight.
- Okay, Maggie, place with the fat chef is the best pizza in LA.
Why would the skinny chef be better?
- Because that guy is from Italy and the other's from Nebraska.
- Gotcha. [both laugh]
- What?
- No, it's just nice to hear you call them first, not last.
- I want to tell you something.
- I want to listen. [Maggie chuckles]
- About the reading I gave you.
- Mm-hmm. - About
you and me.
- Yeah?
What? What is it?
- Uh... in your reading,
I saw your future,
and I know how things end.
This doesn't work out.
- Okay. Um, but we had fun, right? We had fun.
So I'm supposed to let you throw that away
because you think it might not happen?
- I know it won't happen.
- Wow.
I'm not heartbroken.
I am whatever the one-night stand equivalent is.
I'm penis crushed,
which is something that actually happened to my cousin.
I thought you would laugh at that.
- I'm sorry. I'm going to go.
- Maggie, I-- - I know.
I had a great time too.
- I guess you do know how things end.
- I'm sorry.
- Yeah.
[door closes]
MAGGIE: Well, looks like our time's up.
Remember what I said about your cat.
- Uh, one more thing I wanted to ask you.
- Yeah. Your rabbits will hate the bath, too.
[knock on door] [sighs]
- Oh, I made the same mistake.
Hi. - Hi.
- Where have you been the last couple weeks?
I've been texting you about a very handsome boy
who's been wanting to see you.
- Who?
- I rescued him.
- My God, Lou.
- I didn't think it through at all, but I have no regrets.
What do you think?
[snoring] [alarm blaring]
[dog snoring]
- I think he's your soul mate.
- Oh, you hear that?
You're stuck with me.
Yes! Ohh!
- I haven't gotten tongue in a while. [laughs]
What's going on? I was hoping I hadn't heard from you
because you were getting busy with our future husband.
Huh?
Or maybe started your own murder podcast?
- No, actually, turns out
I don't always see the whole picture.
Yeah, he ends up with some brunette.
- Well, she sounds awful. - It's fine.
I've accepted my predetermined life of solitude
and Mr. Rogers sex dreams.
It's not so bad.
Lots of forehead kisses.
- Oh, I love that.
- Oh my god, guess what?
My parents finally kicked the bee guy out.
I have to let the new tenant in.
- What? You did not tell me? Do I look okay?
- [laughs] It's a girl. - Oh.
I still don't get why your parents won't let me move in here.
Is it because I walked in on your dad taking a pee?
I didn't see anything. He was sitting down.
- Yeah, I think that's the part that bothers him.
- Hi. Are you Maggie?
- Yeah. - Oh, sorry.
Your mom said you didn't like questions.
I'm the new neighbor, Jessie.
- Oh. - Have we met before?
- I don't think so.
Do you ever watch hair tutorials online?
- That's how I know you.
Yeah. You taught me how to do side braids.
I ended up looking like Willie Nelson,
but I think that's a problem more
with my forehead than my hair.
- Well, I'm just happy to meet you.
We were a little worried
about who would be living above us.
- Don't worry, babe. I saved the heavy boxes for you. Thanks.
JESSIE: Thanks. BEN: Yeah.
- Ben. - Maggie.
- Hi. - What are you doing here?
- I live here.
What are you doing here?
- I live here. Now. With Jessie.
- You guys all know each other? - Yeah, well, sorta.
Uh, Maggie once gave me a... psychic reading.
- Yeah. JESSIE: No way.
I love psychics.
I'm actually a little psychic.
I once went on a cruise, and I knew
the pool was going to get closed down from a feces-related incident.
- Ugh. Cruises are great.
- Hey, Mag--
Brother and his girlfriend
and people I've probably never ever met before.
[bees buzzing]
- Whoa. Is no one else seeing these bees?
- Ben's sister Amy has a minivan, so she's helping us move.
- Yeah, we just, it makes no sense as a car
because we aren't having kids.
We don't even want them.
- Big Gulps fit in the cupholders,
so it actually makes a ton of sense.
Oh. [clatters]
MAGGIE: "Good things come in threes."
You framed this. JESSIE: Isn't that cute?
Ben and I broke up twice last year,
but then he got that fortune
and we ran into each other a few weeks later.
MAGGIE: Ah. - As Ben likes to say,
you can't fight fate. - Mm-mm.
MAGGIE: Amazing.
Blessings.
